I am going to be doing a build in the near future and was wondering what everyone was thinking about the Intel sockets and their future. Right now I am budgeting a a i7-4770K, which is obviously an LGA 1150 socket. I have heard great things about the extreme editions of Intel CPUs, which are LGA 2011. So my question is, what do you think the future of these sockets are and which of the two am I going to the the most longevity out of?

Just saw the leaked prices for Ivy Bridge-E.... I am not really an enthusiast so I can't defend spending 1K on a processor. That's basically half my budget. Guess I'm getting the Z87 chipset and sticking with it for a couple of years!
